[2025 Kyoto Attraction] Travel Guide for Ninomaru Garden (Updated Jul)

#Travel to save the world The Nijo Castle Sakura Festival is usually held from mid-March to early April at Nijo Castle, Kyoto. It is a great place to see the cherry blossom lights at night with projection mapping at Karamon Gate, along with over 300 cherry trees from 50 species. The atmosphere is a perfect blend of history and digital art. There is a Sakura bar and other activities to enjoy. If you have plans to visit Kyoto during the cherry blossom season next year, we highly recommend that you don't miss it! 🚞 How to get there Take the JR Zain or Kansai Line and get off at Nijo Station, then walk for about 10 minutes, or take the Karasuma Subway Line and get off at Nijo-mae Station. It takes a few minutes to walk to the castle. The lights are on from 18:00-22:00 (last entry at 21:00). It is recommended to book tickets in advance for convenience.

Nijo Castle is famous for its nightingale-style roof. I visited it on a school trip, but even as an adult, I was able to take in the details more when I looked around slowly. The garden is lush with greenery and there is water, and it feels like there is fresh air flowing through it. You will be walking a lot and will have to take your shoes off, so I recommend wearing shoes that are easy to take off and walk in. #KyotoTourism #Kyoto #NijoCastle #CastleTour

#Nijo Castle #Amazing View #Summer Trip #Castle Tour It's less than a 10 minute walk from The Eddystar Hotel Kyoto Nijo Castle, which I often visit. I've always wanted to go there, and I'm glad I did. As I walked along the corridors of the castle, I was able to see what the rooms looked like and read the explanations of what each room was used for, which was quite educational and fun. However, photography is not allowed inside the castle. The gardens outside the castle are beautiful, and of course the castle itself is a wonderful piece of architecture, and the castle grounds are large and there are many things to see. #

The Ninomaru Palace in Nijo Castle, a historic wooden castle with a lush garden, is the famous place where the 15th Shogun, Tokugawa Yoshinobu, expressed his intention to "return power to the Emperor". Comfortable shoes are essential for walking in the large castle grounds! ! It has also been selected as one of Japan's 100 famous castles. A 17-minute walk from Nijo Station on the JR Sagano Line or a short walk from Nijo Castle Station on the Tozai Subway Line Information as of June 2022. #Breathtaking views #Historical sites #Castle tours #Japan's 100 famous castles #Photogenic spots #Kyoto #Kyoto Prefecture #Nijo Castle #Quintessa campaign

#0yentravel Nijo Castle Ninomaru Garden Address: 541 Nijojocho, Horikawa Nishiiru, Nijo-dori, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto, Kyoto 604-8301 ----------------- Nijo Castle Ninomaru Garden is a place where you can't help but enjoy strolling around, with a beauty that is like a picture scroll! The first thing that catches your eye when you step inside is a large pond! Around this pond, islands and bridges with different styles are placed, and it's interesting that the scenery changes every time you walk. It's as if the garden designer created it while thinking, "What kind of scenery should I show you next to surprise you?" And this garden uses many stones with unusual shapes. There are rugged rocks and smooth round stones... These stones are famous stones collected from all over the country, and some of them have names. If you listen carefully to the voices of the stones, they may tell you a story. As you walk through the garden, you will encounter many different kinds of trees and plants. You can feel the beauty of nature in each season, from the vivid greenery of spring to the fiery red leaves of autumn. In particular, the trees reflected on the surface of the pond are like a painting, and will take your breath away. You can also see carp swimming gracefully in the pond, and sometimes ducks resting their wings. Watching these creatures is soothing to the soul. And this garden is not just beautiful, it is designed to be integrated with the Ninomaru Palace building. It is designed so that the way it looks changes depending on which room in the palace you view the garden from. It might be fun to imagine what people at the time were thinking as they looked at this beautiful garden from their rooms. Ninomaru Garden is not just a place to walk and enjoy the scenery, but a place with a deep charm where you can feel the beauty of nature, the aesthetic sense of the people at the time, and the harmony with the architecture. Take your time to stroll around and find your own "favorite" view! I'm sure it will be a wonderful memory that will stay with you forever!

This is a pond garden facing the west side of the Imperial Palace. It is said that it was renovated once for Emperor Gomizuo's visit in 1626 (the third year of the Kan'ei era). Kobori Enshu and other staff directors participated in the renovation. In the center of the pool is Zhongdao, which is said to be Penglai Island. Originally, the entire garden was surrounded by the Kuroshoin, the Great Hall, and the long corridor connecting to the now non-existent Gyoko Palace. The garden can be viewed from many directions. #2024TravelReview

Location: Kyoto Nijo Castle Admission fee 1,300 yen Nijo Castle is a relatively modern castle built by Tokugawa Ieyasu in Nijo, Kyoto! There are various cherry blossom trees lined up in the center of the incredibly large castle park. Compared to other famous tourist spots in Kyoto, there are fewer people and it is quiet, so it is the best place to enjoy cherry blossoms while taking a walk! I think the space where you can rest while drinking a drink is even better because you can appreciate the cherry blossoms like a picture frame🌸 #CherryBlossoms

Nijo Castle, a World Heritage Site located a short distance from Kyoto Station. A flat castle built by the Tokugawa family for Kyoto. Its construction is similar to the Imperial Palace. However, I have visited many castles around the country, but Kyoto is an area that has not been bombed, so it has a different impact. You can feel the atmosphere. Many things happen in life, but when you see the remains of Kyoto's ancient ancestors, you can reconsider your desire to live and create and connect. The sliding door paintings by the Kano school are the best. The actual paintings are also in the collection museum. It would be even better if they had merchandise such as T-shirts. It's relatively empty now, so I recommend it.

Art Aquarium held at Nijo Castle! #Couple trip

Nijo Castle, which preserves the paintings and architectural features of the Momoyama era in Japan, is one of Kyoto's world cultural heritage. Cherry blossoms in the spring, this is also the best place, repaired in March, just arrived in early April, and will be open for night cherry viewing. The Marunouchi in Nijo Castle is an important cultural heritage, and the Naruyaru Imperial Palace is a national treasure. Inside the temple, there are generals who receive the names of the rooms, the rooms of the court officials and the living room. The luxurious partitions and carvings are decorated, and the buildings that condense the beauty of the time are presented in front of you, marveling!
